Lyrics

[Verse 1]

It worries me this kind of thing

How you hope to live alone

And occupy your waking hours

We're taking sides again

I just wept, I couldn't understand

Why you started this again

[Verse 2]

And everyday you send me more

It makes it worse, is this a plan of yours

To ensure I don't forget?

I'd write and tell you

That I've burnt them all

But you never send me your address

And I've kept them anyway

[Verse 3]

So don't ask me if I think it's true

That communication can bring

Hope to those

Who have gone their separate ways

It hardly touched me

When it should have then

Memories are uncertain friends

When recalled by messages

[Verse 4]
